Nanilo Sings

Nanilo is a duo of women singing songs of diaspora. Nanilo traces musical lines to tradition from Jewish and Eastern European roots. Singing entirely in the songs’ original languages, including Yiddish, Russian, Ladino, Hebrew, and more, the duo showcases the way music has moved through generations of immigrants arriving to North America. With the tight harmonies of a family band and the accompaniment of a banjo, fiddle, and drum, Nanilo brings you onto a familiar front porch — if your front porch were in Grajevo or Breznitsa
